Well I did it. I managed to buy everything I needed for Thanksgiving dinner (minus the bird), got our weekly needs and still saved! I love Couponing!
So here is the low down:
Total Bill: $282.06 (which I could have sworn it said 287 but hey...)
Club Card: -$94.27 (I also used my $17 points gold coupon that was mailed)
Coupons: - $10.15
REUSABLE BAG credit!: -.35
Total Savings: - $104.77
Out of pocket: $177.29
Number of Items: 98 ($1.81 an item)
I got our milk, juice, eggs, lunch meat as well as the $5 pyrex 9X13 dishes! I got cool whip, readiwhip, veggies, stuffing, 10 lbs of potatoes for $1.50 - all I needed for the big day this week.
Now one thing to note - I did go to Walgreens last week - they had coupons for cranberry jelly, french's onions, sweet potatoes and the campbell's gravy that I picked up.
One extra note - I ordered a Honey Baked Ham last week. (I ordered the "mini" since we are doing a HUGE bird, 4 lbs should be plenty for the 12 - 16 I am expecting.) The reason I mention this is... on "retailmenot.com" they have coupons for SO many sites. I found one that worked and saved $5.20! I did have to try a couple to get one to go through but it did work. The ham was delivered in two days. (I could have saved more off shipping if I had paid better attention to the site and found that I could have picked up in store!)
